Make your own Natural Organic Nitrogen Rich Plant Food

Make your own Natural Organic Nitrogen Rich Plant Food Fertilizer

I was doing some gardening and this little plant bit me and i have never seen this plant before so had to look it up and I’m so glad i did not only is it good for fertilizer it to is a super food and medical value

Simply pick a bucket full of stinging nettles,new growth is best but older plants will do,then chop this up a little in the bucket and simply leave to soak in a bucket of water for around a week.
After a week or so the leaves will start to break down and release the nutrients and trace elements and turn into a brown liquid.
Then simply sieve the liquid and store.
Use this feed on any plants or vegetables around the garden but especially leafy green plants like lettuce or cabbages as they appreciate a bit of extra Nitrogen.
Dilute the feed so that it's about the color of weak tea and that's about it.
Cheap,natural,organic feed from the nettle

medicinal and a food source but a fertilizer to. Nettle has a high
